Dana Cowen, Ph.D., the associate curator of European art at the Joslyn Art Museum, will provide an illustrated overview of the exhibition “Bijoux Parisien” at noon on June 29 in Williams Science Hall, Room 1038.
“Bijoux Parisien” explores the intersection of French fashion, art, and history through nearly 70 works of jewelry and more than 100 original design paintings, fashion prints, and photographs. Elegant brooches, necklaces, and bracelets forged from precious materials reflect the same aesthetic, social, and political concerns that drove major artists from the 17th century to the mid-20th century.
This exhibit will be on view at the Joslyn until Sept. 10.
Please RSVP to the UNMC event coordinator if you plan to attend. A minimum of 10 people is needed or the lecture will be canceled.
This event is offered through the Passport Partners Program, which provides free museum admission for UNMC employees, students and their immediate families, with valid identification. The partnership also offers lectures, workshops and other events on the medical center campus.
